Its all myth to say GM is bad 1. Bt "prtien" toxin is only toxic to intestinal epithelium of insect larvae only...not for humans or animals or adult insects. 2. we do not have any receptors for this toxin in our body 3. as it a protein molecule it will destroyed in the acidic ph 2 of stomach and digested in the small intestine. 4. we should remember that along with our food we are taking many foreign dna and protein daily but no dna or protein never interfered with our body or we evolved in to a monster over night. 5. fear of cross pollination of the so called toxic pollen to its nearest species is also a myth. life has been evolved and had mechanism of receptors unique to a given genus or species hence life maintaining individual uniqueness and diversity. other wise it would have been a case of "overnight monsters" 6. with the shrinking agricultural land and demographic pressure there is no other go but adapt new and safe technologies of course GM is safe food. 7. or shall we ask our sonia madam and great economist MMS to introduce one child or at least two child policy in the country to feed our people????? oh no congies and commies will miss the vote bank politics. 8. don't ever believe support the so called social workers or their movements because they totally lacking in scientific knowledge eg: shabana azmi, arundati roy, metha patkar etc

Do you know which company has been rated as the :Company of the year 2009" by the Forbes Magazine.
Do you know this company is one of the 10 most influencing companies in the world rated by Business World.
Do you also know this company has been rated one of the best 25 companies to work.
For anything there are two sides. We should analyse that before we say something.

There are mnay points in the introduction of GM crops in India namely: 1/ Monopoly of seed supply to Farmers will be handed over to MNC 2/ Health and Hazards, The farmers of India are not aware of it. 3/ Indian agriculture is based on sound footing . Should it be allowed to pass on others hand? 4/ Because of introduction or success of Bt cotton, conventional seeds of cotton are now a days rare in some states. It is mainly because of extension activities of MNC. So in some point of time all the local and high yieding cultivars will be expunged from the country interfering the genetic diversity of the crop. However there are some points in favour of GM crops like high yielding varities are really susceptible to some insects like fruit and shoot borer in brinjal or cotton ball warm in cotton. Against the two backgrounds if we judge the merit of GM crops,perhaps it needs more time of research so that health and safety question is verified impartially and then decide whether to grow GM crops or not. We have to be circumspect Indian Agriculture is not disturbed any way.
Marathis want to destroy India in many ways. They kill Hindi speakers when they come to their state for jobs. And they want to now destroy the agriculture also. Why is Sharad Pawar allowing it in India? He allowed Bt cotton in Maharashtra, and now his Vidarbhis are committing suicide left, right and center. Now, he wants to destroy the agriculture all over India by these GM seeds. Like Veer movie showed, marathis have always supported Pindaris, the plunderers.

they dont want to speak Hindi, but wants to adopt British Brinjal???
If Pawar really wants to have more income in the hands of farmers, than adopt the Amul model, simple no 7-layer agents in between. Probably no minister either :)

HEY Man u didnt understand what Maya sen is telling..he is not favouring Bt brinjal but he says the Hybrid fruits are also as much dangerous as bt brinjal..it means we should use only normally grown fruits and vegetbales...dont comment personally u can oppose a view but not abuse people
The solution to this controversy is not too difficult to find. Attack Monsanto offices and management across the country. Since we have scoundrels like Sharad Pawar in the decision making body, this seems a viable option to prevent Bt brinjal from being introduced in the country. Those who concur with the idea may sign up.

this monster brinjal should not be allowed for following reasons: 1. its high yield is not proven. 2. its safe to consume factor is not proven by any indian laboratory. 3. all laboratory reports, irrespectie of whre it was tested, have concluded of high toxicity, and low safety for humans on consumption. 4. once it spreads in an area, it will permanently destroy the traditional crops, which will be gone forever. 5. government, or, an mnc, should not be given a right to permanently destroy the traditional strain of a crop, just because some claimedly better variety of the crop is produced by some mnc. it amounts to something like killing all weak people when the average person becomes a bit stronger. 7. any fellow in the government, be it a politician or a beauraucrat, has not certified its safety. all these fellows are proclaiming a let us see policy, playing dangerously with the lives of people.
if these fellows are so keen, let them introduced it in their own farms, which anyway politicians have in plenty, and eat for a generation before taking a decision.
